Reaction Steps

8-Hydroxy-6,6-dimethyl-11-oxo-6,11-dihydro-5H-benzo[b]carbazole-3-carbonitrile (Compound A6, 25 mg, 0.083 mmol) was dissolved in N,N-dimethylacetamide (1 mL), added with 2-chloroethyldiethylamine (16 mg, 1.1 eq.) and cesium carbonate (54 mg, 2 eq.) in order and stirred at 100° C. for 4 hr. The reaction solution was poured over water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The drying agent was removed by filtration and the residues obtained after concentration under reduced pressure were purified by amino silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane) to obtain the title compound (11 mg, 32%).
